But is this a teaching tool or is it an amp you could listen to for a few years? I would love to know from some of the builders how it sounds into full range drivers (reviews).
I would like to know if it could beat my current class-D demo board for an ADAU1592 with diy power supply to drive my Fostex full range speakers (all subjective I know).

One thing that I think would encourage more people to "jump in the pool", If the parts to populate the PCB are provided. To my everlasting shame I have purchased some
PCB’s I have never populated, and will most likely never do so. However I am happy to say that I have built every kit I have ever purchased (mostly headphone amps)
where the parts to populate the PCB were provided. This is what Glass Jar Audio does.

Many good points here. I've listened to it a bit, but now that amp camp is over :

-I have to work a lot due to neglecting my real job preparing for the event.
- We organizers gave up our PCB's so more people could participate (they were begging to come! ). Then the amps all went home with people. I did listen to them on various systems though, and they do have that Pass sweet sound for sure. They seemed happier with full range drivers.

And yes we are not only ordering boards, once we clear up the PCB/schematic discrepancy, but we'll have it bundled with parts so it can be built up easily and quickly. We've already proven it can be built in half a day. Ours took a bit longer for most people due to the chassis requiring cleaning and polishing.

There are going to be a lot of happy newbies making amps.

The amazing thing to me is how easy and cheap it is to use the SMPS. Of course lots of people could propose such a thing, but Papa is in the position to bless the concept, and make it work and we all then believe him. And sure it seems obvious now, but great ideas always do after the fact!

Yeah I was suggesting this years ago now, and everyone laughed at the suggestion like I was on drugs or something. I just might have convinced Nelson though.
